All,
I would like to add the first 10 elements of an array. Here is how I am doing it now (only included first few add ops):

TOTAL=`awk '/time/' /tmp/file.out | awk '{print $4}'`

Hello,
I am trying to assign $string = $a; #a= 10100

As above, is not capturing binary nos. in following format;
$string = '10100';
so index is not working.

Hi gurus,
I need to create arrays from variables, via a loop.
The issue I have is with the array name creation. How do I use a variable to define an array?
I want to do something like
declare -a $H
where $H is my loop variable.
I then need to add items to each array I've created,... (3 Replies)
is this possible?
its kind of like incrementing the value of a number in a variable. but in this case, instead of the value of the variable being a number, it's just contents/strings/characters/alpha-numeric etc. NOT a number.
For instance:
VAR=Tommy
for all in $(blah blah)

while i've used arrays to work with variables, i've never used them to loop through a set of strings and wanted to ask the community for some feedback or assistance.
let me be specific. here's my code:
# URL port Variables

This question is for someone that's more familiar with Array Element.
I need to know if the maximum array element that can be assigned is 1024 and if its so, Is there a workaround solution when the counter exceeded 1024?
param_array="$param_nam"
counter=$counter+1

How do I unset the 10D from this array and save it to a file?

escape(1) Mail Avenger 0.8.3 escape(1)NAME
escape - escape shell special characters in a string
SYNOPSIS
escape string
DESCRIPTION
escape prepends a "" character to all shell special characters in string, making it safe to compose a shell command with the result.
EXAMPLES
The following is a contrived example showing how one can unintentionally end up executing the contents of a string:
$ var='; echo gotcha!'
$ eval echo hi $var
hi
gotcha!
$
Using escape, one can avoid executing the contents of $var:
$ eval echo hi `escape "$var"`
hi ; echo gotcha!
$
A less contrived example is passing arguments to Mail Avenger bodytest commands containing possibly unsafe environment variables. For
example, you might write a hypothetical reject_bcc script to reject mail not explicitly addressed to the recipient:
#!/bin/sh
formail -x to -x cc -x resent-to -x resent-cc
| fgrep "$1" > /dev/null
&& exit 0
echo "<$1>.. address does not accept blind carbon copies"
exit 100
To invoke this script, passing it the recipient address as an argument, you would need to put the following in your Mail Avenger rcpt
script:
bodytest reject_bcc `escape "$RECIPIENT"`

BUGS
escape is designed for the Bourne shell, which is what Mail Avenger scripts use. escape might or might not work with other shells.
